I don’t actually really wear these to exercise, I just wear them under my pants all the time, and as pajama pants. I wear bike shorts almost 24hrs a day, and almost 365 days a year under my jeans, shorts, skirts, etc. I normally buy a $12 pair from Walmart and they last me between 2-3 years, this year however I could not find them on Walmart.com, so I went to Amazon and ordered several extremely frustrating pairs that were double and triple the price I normally pay. They were really poorly made, sheer, ill fitting, and just crappy. I ordered these somewhat on a whim and let me tell you, these are AWESOME! The inseam is actually 9 inches, which is apparently as rare as a pink zebra because this is the first pair I’ve found that were actually a true 9 inches. These also offer belly control, I can pull them up to my belly button comfortably and they still cover my thighs without giving me a mega wedgie, which in the world of bike shorts under $40+ is freaking miraculous. They don’t dig into my stomach or my thighs, and they don’t make my thighs look like crescent rolls exploding out of the can, which is pretty nice! The pockets are awesome as well, one on each leg that can easily fit a phone without being stretched out and a teeny tiny pocket on the back with a zipper. I’m a picky person when it comes to clothes, especially my bike shorts since I wear them literally all the time, and these not only meet, but exceed my expectations and I can’t recommend them enough. 10/10, 5 stars, will absolutely be ordering additional pairs.

I bought these shorts because a) it's summer and it's HOT, b) because they offer a little snugness, although not tight compression, c) because the length is perfect for my 54-year old, not-so-firm-anymore legs (ain't nobody wanna see those things flapping around), and d) because the price is great. I LOVE THEM. They fit great, and feel great. No chafing anywhere. The side pocket is deep enough for my phone to fit completely and securely inside. My only complaint is that the pair with the pretty pattern down the side of the legs does not have the little zipper key pocket at the back of the waist, but other than that, they're all awesome. I have all 3 colors now. If you're a heavy sweater when you run, don't wear the grey ones out of the house or you'll look like you peed your pants. :D Highly, HIGHLY recommended... and in fact, I have done so in several different running groups. LOVE them. Read more
I want to say "perfect" but I can't quite. They are very good and close to what I wanted. I am tall. 6'2" so finding these type of shorts that actually come to right above or at my knee is a full time job. I'm also plus size, wearing a 22, or 2x, sometimes 3x so I can get some length. I got a 2x and they fit well. The length is perfect and they don't cut into my leg making a weird bulge like some do. They are a wee bit high waist in the front and not at all in the back. Maybe because I have a big ass and hips. I'm pulling them up in the back a lot and keeping them from rolling down in the front. This is probably because of my height. Nothing that says it's high waisted on me ever is without giving myself moose knuckle. As long as I leave these right at my belly button they are fine. Not too sheer. Not see through. Great pockets even a zipper pocket in the back. Will probably get another pair. Read more
Love these to exercise in. They are extremely comfortable, and I love the fact that they are not sheer. I’ve bought them in several different colors. Read more
I ordered these as a compression garment for my thighs, I have loose skin from weight loss, to wear under my jeans and pants for a smoother look. They are exactly what I wanted and work great! Did the squat test and hubby says they are opaque and he cannot see through them. The elastic is sewn in place and doesn't twist. The fabric is soft and stretchy. I'm 5'8" with a 46" waist and 56" hips. They fit me fine, any tighter in the waist and they would be too snug but if you are my measurements or below you'll be good in the XXL. They go down to my actual knee which is SO hard to find. I immediately went back and bought the black ones, I know these will be my go to shorts for summer. Read more
I bought these for running and they are great. They come right down to my knee (I'm 5'7"), don't ride up or fall down, and the pocket on the leg actually held my phone (Samsung 8 in a case) for an entire run without it falling out - I had forgotten my arm band and stubbornly didn't want to run without my music. I was impressed. For sizing - they fit perfect. I've been losing weight and was a bit hesitant on what size would work as I continue losing weight. I started out at 230 + and the XLs were a bit snug. Now I'm at 185 and they're still fitting although a tad loose. I plan on ordering some new pairs and continuing to use this style / brand. Highly recommend. Read more
These are comfortable. But they are not flattering at all. They come up to my belly button and then cut my stomach in two. The pockets are not deep and placed at my hip rather than my thigh. Way too high in my opinion. They are squat proof and comfy and seem to hold up well. so I kept them. Oh and the knee part fans out a bit. I would rather it be snug. Read more
I needed compression shorts and they are so comfortable and great price, will buy again Read more
